Something's going to have to be done': After Maduro's capture, Trump's veiled threat to Mexico
Venezuela’s Supreme Court orders Vice President Delcy Rodriguez to immediately assume and exercise all presidential powers in an acting capacity.
We’re very friendly with her, she’s a good woman,” Trump told Fox & Friends, referring to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, according to reports by the New York Post. “But the cartels are running Mexico — she’s not running Mexico.”
The US president has previously clashed with Sheinbaum over trade tariffs and blamed Mexico for allowing illegal immigration and narcotics to flow across the southern border.
In response, Sheinbaum said Mexico “strongly condemns and rejects” the US military action in Venezuela and urged Washington to end “all acts of aggression against the Venezuelan government and people.”
